Albert Einstein’s theory of gravity, general relativity, is famously incomplete. As proven by physics Nobel laureate Roger Penrose, when matter collapses under its own gravitational pull, the result ...

Scientists have achieved two major breakthroughs: experimentally uncovering how quantum order collapses in real-world environments and proposing new gravity models that could replace the Big Bang ...

Figure 1：Magnetic-field-driven superconductor-metal phase transition with multiple quantum critical points in CaFe 1-x Ni x AsF. Exploration of exotic quantum phase transitions has always been a focus ...

Three physicists have proposed a modification to Einstein’s general relativity that, if confirmed, could eliminate the singularity at the origin of the universe. By adding higher-curvature terms to ...

The theory of technological singularity predicts a point in time when humans lose control over their technological inventions and subsequent developments due to the rise of machine consciousness and, ...

Quantum computers could solve some of the world's most challenging problems, but only if we can make them big enough. A new modular design for quantum chips could make building large-scale quantum ...

Cleveland Clinic has named three startup companies to its latest Quantum Innovation Catalyzer Program cohort to support research into how quantum computing could advance healthcare and life sciences.

A quantum internet would essentially be unhackable. In the future, sensitive information—financial or national security data, for instance, as opposed to memes and cat pictures—would travel through ...
